I read buffered baby aspirin, He is 70 lbs.

I don't know if he could walk on it now, He stopped a few times going from the yard to the house, but that as about an hour ago.

If you think he is that painful then I would rec taking him to an emergency clinic as opposed to giving him aspirin. I say that only because there are so many safer and more effective pain medications that can be given, plus giving aspirin can interfere with other medications the vet may want to use tomorrow.

if he is 'merely' uncomfortable, ie eating/drinking/otherwise acting ok, then waiting until morning and not giving anything for pain is probably ok. You have to judge that.

He is sleeping now. Breathing a little heavy, but I often think that.

I really need to get an answer on what emergency vet I should go to.

Last time the vet told us to crate him and support under his rump with a towel when he walks. Plus carry him up the stairs. Son was home then. I can't carry him.

PIA dog! He got in a scuffle at the dog park and the other dog was bleeding when he got done. It wasn' t even a big fight. I pulled him out. I won't do that if it is serious. Large puppy's first fight.

Owner wasn't upset, but she let the dog stay and the cut was all muddy when we left. I hope that dog doesn't have a problem from the bite getting so dirty. Dog wasn't upset. Went and humped another dog! That is what started the fight with Rusty.

I wonder how Rusty twisted his leg this time.

//pssss....Ribirto, Senior Paul is spreading rumors about you. Maybe you need to visit NYC for awhile and make him think about what he did.
I heard a frog like you can get a cheap flight inside a bubble wrap envelope.

sounds good! I'm thinking nephew will come over tomorrow. I'm going for an early morning walk with a neighbor. Too hot to walk in the evening. Only advantage of this drought is that there aren't really any skeeters!
